I write Spirit-Filled Fiction, stories that present God as alive, active, and powerful within the characters I create. I believe I tell stories that people relate to, and in a grounded fashion. I am learning as I go, and hope my stories will impact people, even those who have yet to meet the Resurrected Lord. *** I live in London, UK. https://www.amazon.com/author/seanell... ...more

He Speaks

The Scriptures declare Him. And our lives should declare Him to the world. But if we have festering wounds in us, through the Bible and the Holy Spirit, let Him speak to you to bring healing and hope. He cares for you!

“In the realm of the Spirit, there is no distinction between secular and holy. Everything in God’s sight, in this new life, is holy.”
― John Wright Follette, John Wright Follette's Golden Grain

“We forget, when speaking about heaven, that so many of the things which are for us in the ages yet to come, after this life has been lived, and we as a conscious entity, a spirit released from the body, and moving in the new resurrection body, in a new spiritual realm, most of the things that we have on that other shore—over there in the ages—are DETERMINED HERE. Now don’t think that we can just live a Christian life as happy as bumble bees, and, when we go to heaven, everything is going to be so wonderful. I am sorry to disillusion some people. It isn’t going to be that way! Right here and now, we are making the decisions; the choices; the surrenders; the outpourings of life. We are doing that HERE, and THAT WILL DETERMINE what we will have over there. That is not built up all of a sudden over there; not at all. We determine all that right here and now.”
― John Wright Follette, John Wright Follette's Golden Grain
